Intended Use and Fitment for Porsche CARRERA 996

The presented fuel filler flap is structurally prepared for installation in Porsche CARRERA 996 models after a specific model year facelift. The geometry of the part, mounting method, and edge profile are adapted to the factory shape of the fender and filler neck, which facilitates installation and ensures proper adhesion to the body surface.

By preserving the original body line, the flap does not disrupt the characteristic silhouette of the 996, and proper fitment reduces the risk of stress, cracks, or leaks around the fuel filler.

Arctic Silver Metallic - 92T Color and Aesthetic Value

The finish in Arctic Silver Metallic - 92T matches one of the popular shades used in the Porsche CARRERA 996. Choosing a part with the same paint code can often eliminate the need for a full repaint, reducing repair time and service costs.

The metallic paint structure ensures consistent light reflection with other body panels, which is important both for close inspection and in daylight. This solution is particularly beneficial for restorations where preserving the car's original character and uniform paint surface is crucial.

Protective and Functional Role of the Fuel Filler Flap

The fuel filler flap plays an important protective role in the daily operation of the vehicle. A correctly selected part:

• protects the cap and filler neck from road debris,
• limits moisture and dust ingress into the filler area,
• supports the correct geometry of seals around the fuel cap,
• provides an aesthetic finish to the side of the body.

Proper fitment of the flap is important not only visually but also operationally – stable mounting and the correct opening angle facilitate convenient refueling and reduce the risk of mechanical damage during use.

Part Selection by OEM Number and Color

To ensure the fuel filler flap will work correctly with your Porsche's body, it is advisable to verify compatibility by OEM number and paint code. If in doubt, the vehicle's VIN and a comparison of parameters with service documentation will be helpful.

Benefits of Using an Original Fuel Filler Flap

Using a correctly selected fuel filler flap in Arctic Silver Metallic - 92T color allows for visual consistency of the entire side of the vehicle and reduces the scope of body and paint work. This solution is particularly beneficial for spot repairs where you aim for precise restoration of the factory appearance without interfering with adjacent panels.

A well-fitted body part also supports the car's residual value – an aesthetically executed repair, maintaining the correct color and body line, is better assessed by appraisers and potential future buyers.
